Description

The Yoichi 80 Blade is a limited-edition, blade-tuned version of the Yoichi 80 sinking pencil, measuring 80mm and weighing 20g. It carries ima's ORIGINAL BLADE II, a blade that keeps turning even at slow retrieve speeds, adding extra flash and vibration to the standard Yoichi 80 action.

The blade's drag also slows the fall speed, letting it work a shallower depth range than the original model. It's a rare sinking pencil suited to daytime fishing.

Information

The swimming action

The Yoichi 80 Blade carries ima's Original Blade II on the belly, a small blade that keeps turning even at slow speeds, layering extra flash and vibration onto the standard Yoichi 80's wide slalom kick.

When to throw it

Suited to daytime seabass fishing in harbours, tidal flats, river mouths and rocky shorelines, where the extra flash and vibration help pull fish in bright light or dirty water.

How to work it

The blade's drag slows the fall and lets the lure work a touch shallower than the standard Yoichi 80; work it on a steady straight retrieve to keep the blade spinning continuously.

The setup it likes

Suits an ML seabass spinning rod, 2500-3000 reel, PE 0.8-1 mainline and a 20-25lb fluorocarbon leader.
